Blackmail on grounds of comitting suicide.
1 year ago
Dear Madam / Sir,
A friend of mine reached out to me yesterday and asked for advise regarding following:
After 8 years in a relationship, she and her boyfriend broke up somewhere in Jan 2023.
He works abroad. He called her and threatened her that he would commit suicide if she doesn't get back with her. She is keeping back in touch with him as she is afraid there might be any incident.
I have no idea what to tell her. Need legal advise asf that I can pass on to her.
1. How can she protect herself against this situation as of now?
2. Does she have any liability if an incident does occur ?
3. How / where can she access legal / psychological help in this matter (if not here)?
Kindly advise,
Thanking you in anticipation.
There will be legal action if there is incitement to suicide. Please contact the number on the website in this regard. Thank you.
